All Chapters of When Destiny Brings A Second Chance Mate: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Sovia’s POV Zadekiah doesn't trust me. It was obvious that he was trying to get rid of me. Nice move, Zadekiah. And if the news gets out, I’ll have to go back to my family and to Janova. I cannot let that happen. Throughout dinner, he didn’t touch his food, and all he did was keep refilling my plate and in order to keep the charade I kept beaming. Dinner ended almost abruptly. I kept my head down as the Luna Queen rose and escorted me out of the hall. “Are you really in love with that thing?” She asked. The air around us suddenly turned chilly, as she took my arm gently guiding me. The same way she did in my former life. However it only made my wolf stir, in ways that made my chest lock. I could almost see those memories playing over, when she grabbed my arm and ordered the maids to hold me down. “Mother please, the medicine makes my stomach hurt,” I pleaded when she asked why I hadn’t drunk the concoction of her healer's brew. “It was to make your barren womb fertile,”

Zadekiah’s POV "Maybe I am a fool." Sovia rasped, every word clawed at my chest. "But so are you."My mouth closed around one of the tears and sucked. I could taste bitter anger and pain, like this gave me the slightest inclination of what she was feeling.Yes. I'm the biggest fool.Because at this moment, I wanted to take it all away and forget all about my own.Deep inside my heart, in a low voice I asked myself. Sovia Henric, is there a day you would ever shed a tear for me — even a drop.She wouldn’t. Pain bloomed inside my mouth as I closed my hand around her shoulder, drawing her inside my body like I could take the wholeness of her inside me. Maybe… just maybe if we were merged, she would see me. Not even love me—just truly stay by my side.But she was nothing but a fire that would consume my soul — eventually.“Zadekiah?” She called softly.“Hmmm?” I shut my eyes, wanting this to be real but it wasn’t.“Whenever you hold me — I feel alive. Like my heart can finally beat.”I

Sovia’s POV "Don't...don't come any closer."The more he tried to move, the way his hands trembled...it only made the taste of his fear against my tongue. I didn't know why he was suddenly so scared, but it felt good. To be feared. To be the predator.Just before I could reach him, leaves hustled from the side, revealing Zadekiah.He grabbed the man’s neck, sank his fangs into his neck. The man screamed, fingers dragged over Zadekiah’s arm trying to stop him. Zadekiah smashed his body against the floor. He crouched down as the man started crawling leaving a trail of blood as he did. Zadekiah grabbed his feet, yanked him backward. “How dare you touch her—” he said in a voice that made the air shift with murderous intent.The dagger I held dropped to the floor beside my feet. The red haze slowly faded as the colours returned to my vision. Zadekiah hurled the man off the floor slightly, then bam he slammed his head on the floor. Burning rage coursed through his veins, his hands trembli

Sovia’s POVI laid on my bed, the image of Zadekiah refusing to leave my memory. He didn’t put so much effort in his appearance but that jawline… the way it clenched, or the way his throat bulged when he didn’t want to look at me.Did I have an effect on him? I wish I did.His touch was warm, but around him he carried that air that made him too far to reach. A smile I didn’t know touched my lips as I hugged the pillow tightly. His scent circled around, like he was laying just beside me.With a face and body like his, I didn’t mind being in his bed, or him in mine. No feelings, or mate bond pull, just two primal instincts letting room to explore each other.And I wanted to see him, the whole him.And do not get me wrong, seeing him naked would be overwhelming in the most passionate way, but I wanted to see him.Because deep down there was so much to him, this character that fate had brought my way. And maybe if I can just get through to him, he would let me in, then I can tame him.He

Zadekiah’s POV The fabric hung loosely on my body as I took slow and deliberate steps into the living room. The air went quiet, as if they had noticed my presence. I was used to that suffocating stillness that followed me like a second skin. But that way, they all stayed away — just the way I preferred. “Your Highness.” It was Alpha Henric, rising from the sleek leather sectional sofa, quite faded if I was being honest. The whole place stretched like a forgotten throne room. Heavy drapes, frayed at the edges, framed the tall windows. I couldn’t remember how long they had been there. I had made it so. Isaac flanked my side like a shield as I came over to the other side of the living room, directly opposite Alpha Henric. Beside him was Sovia’s older sister. Her eyes were fixed on mine as though she was trying to pass on a specific message. I could already guess what she was trying to say. As I lowered myself into a seat, I caught that faint scent—a familiar scent laced wit
